Hauling some Sandy damaged trees back in October. I got three loads from them. Still haven't cut, split, and stacked it all yet.

Here's a couple of Bumps that still earn their keep.

Bumpsides Rule! :)

I spotted these two this morning. Being a Sunday, they both had the day off. :lol: A building is being torn down and these Bumps are being used to haul away the rubble.

Finally have a good 'overloaded 1/2 ton' picture of my bump to put up!

She wouldn't look so bad, but the leaf springs are taco'd out.

I drove around like this for 4 days until someone bought the motor. Probably over 700 lbs with all accessories and tranny. The acceleration wasn't bad but braking and handling with no weight on the front wheels was interesting.

Thanks! It does OK in the snow with the added weight of the snow on it and if the snow isn't too deep. Do you miss your F350 flatbed yet?

Yes. It is only about 1/4 mile away. I can still visit. The new owner has done tons of work to it and spent some big bucks. When I saw it torn down, I was glad that he got into the restoration and not me. Its a huge project! Enjoy yours.
